Hi! My name is Natalia, a Brazilian completely passionate about animals. I'm a lifelong animal lover, and caring for animals has always been one of the greatest joys in my life. I've lived with pets for as long as I can remember, and over the years I've gained extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, both my own and those of other families.
In Brazil, I regularly provided pet sitting and daily home visits while owners were away. My responsibilities included feeding, refreshing water, administering medication when needed, cleaning litter trays and outdoor areas, taking dogs for walks, spending quality time playing and keeping them company, and making sure they felt safe, comfortable and loved until their families returned.
After moving to Cork, I continued doing what I love. I've worked as a pet sitter caring for dogs in their own homes while their owners were travelling, staying overnight to maintain their routines and provide companionship, exercise and attentive care. I also regularly care for a house cat whenever her owners are away (or not 😅)
Alongside my pet sitting experience, I've been involved in animal rescue in both Brazil and Ireland. I volunteered with an animal rescue organisation in Brazil, helping rescue, care for and rehome animals. Since moving to Cork, I've also helped rescue two kittens, continuing my commitment to animal welfare.
As a biologist, I have a solid understanding of animal behaviour and welfare, which complements my practical experience. I'm comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, rescue animals and administering medication when required.
I know that every pet has its own personality, preferences and routine. My priority is always to make them feel safe, happy and loved while giving owners complete peace of mind. I'll care for your pet with the same dedication, patience and affection that I would give to my own.
